"Public Economics after The Idea of Justice

Abstract:
Economics is undergoing re-appraisal and we need to re-consider what we teach. In this lecture, I examine how public economics should be re-shaped in the light of Amartya Sen's book The Idea of Justice and Professor Sen’s writing over seven decades.
